Dysart Woods frank@ohio.edu

Dysart Woods, a 50-acre tract of old-growth oak forest, is the largest known remnant of the original forest of southeastern Ohio. Some of the spectacular oaks that you will see are 400 years old, stand over 140 feet high, and have a diameter of four feet. The woods are located in unglaciated southeastern Ohio. This area is characteristically hilly with local relief exceeding 200 feet. The sedminentary bedrock in the region is composed mostly of sandstone and shale, with coal seams occuring variably from near the surface to hundreds of feet underground. The rainfall and temperature conditions are well suited for deciduous forests. Dysart Woods exists today as an old-growth forest because several generations of the Dysart family kept it in its natural state. The splendor of the forest, formely enjoyed by only a few, now has become available to many. Ohio University, by agreement with

the Nature Conservancy, has undertaken the responsibility of preserving this outstanding remnant of the magnificent forests the once covered much of Ohio and eastern United States. The recognition of Dysart Woods as a National Natural Landmark by the U.S. Department of the Interior underscores the importance of preserving it. Visitors are welcome in the woods and the adjacent areas which are used for continuing educational research programs. Ohio University has preserved the woods by keeping it in its natural state. That is, no cutting of trees is permitted and fallen logs remain to decompose and thus continue the never-ending cycling of minerals through successive generations of plants. The Department of Environmental and Plant Biology conducts studies of the woods and surrounding fields to learn more about the dynamics of a mature oak ecosystem. Research is to be done in such a way as to leave intact the ecology of the forest. Through classes, guided tours, and published research, the University shares its knowledge of the forest to enable students and visitors to understand better the world in which we live.

the acreage that comprises Egypt Valley Wildlife Area has been subject to surface mining. The last active mine was completed in 1998. Today all of the forests consist of second and third growth timber. Much of the land that was cleared is now in grassland or brushland and dotted with many small ponds and wetlands. Because of the mining, large expanses of grassland and brushland habitats have been created. Egypt Valley Wildlife Area is popular for hunting, fishing, and other forms of wildlife recreation. Many of the small ponds have been stocked with bass, catfish, and bluegills by the division and offer good fishing. Hiking, bird watching, photography, and sightseeing are also popular on the wildlife area. Species not traditionally found in eastern Ohio such as the short-eared owl, Northern harrier, Henslow's sparrow, and bobolink can be found on the large expanses of grassland. Bald eagles and ospreys occasionally stop on the wildlife area on their annual migration. River otters were reintroduced to this area in 1993 and now a thriving population can be found there.

The National Imperial Glass Collectors’ Society, through its Museum, is dedicated to preserving the history of the Imperial Glass Corp. by honoring its employees and providing education and research opportunities. For 80 yrs, Imperial was one of the largest handcrafted glass companies in America. The Museum is a “must visit” for glass enthusiasts. Witness an extensive array of Imperial Glass (Candlewick, Cape Cod, carnival, slag, & more) created from 1904 to 1984 along with related exhibits. One can peruse many photographs of former employees (at work, group pictures, & portraits), the “Big I” factory, and scenes of Bellaire Ohio, Imperial’s home for those 80 yrs. A visitor may also envision the incredible talent of the mould makers and their meticulous work at the mould maker’s bench—an exhibit constructed by Island Mould & Machine of Wheeling, WV. Alongside that exhibit rest some of the tools use by the glassworkers. For sale in the gift shop is a modest selection of genuine Imperial Glass. A visitor might find that perfect and unique gift, an entire set of goblets or other stemware, or that one piece needed to fill out a collection. Both the Museum and Gift Shop are easily accessible at sidewalk level. Plenty of street parking is available adjacent to the building both on Belmont Street and 32nd Street.

Admission to the Museum is $5.

Be sure to join us for the Rubberneck Tour that will take place Sun., Oct. 11, 2020. The Belmont County Rubberneck Tour started at a group meeting when someone said that a “do it yourself” scenic drive would be a great way to promote agriculture in the area. A gentleman at the meeting said “Folks like to drive and rubberneck at scenery.” First starting as a tour of the local farms and homesteads, the Rubberneck Tour has evolved over the years to include visiting historical landmarks and scenic byways with many stops along the way. Look for details on this and other attractions Belmont has to offer in the event calendar on page 38 or at www.visitbelmontcounty.com.
